Post your performance results
I thought it might be interesting to see what kind of performance everyone is getting with IO Meter so that we can compare what we're getting. So I thought we could all post our results in this thread...

Yes. It's not a deficiency of that particular switch, it's just that a 100 megabit switch can only move data at up to 100 megabits, which is what the original numbers were showing. If you want to get closer to the direct connect speeds, you need a 1000 megabit (aka gigabit) switch instead.
